    I was trying to use growisofs to write to a DVD-RAM and it kept
    seg faulting. It worked fine with a DVD-R.

    I tracked the problem down to place in the code where growisofs
    tries to perform an operation on a file handle it has already
    closed.

    I've implemented a workaround already. The problem is, that by my
    reckoning, this should affect anybody who is trying to use a DVD-RAM
    (not DVD+RW) with FreeBSD, but I haven't found any references to the
    problem on the net.

    I'm wondering if anybody else has seen this problem, and if you've
    found some other workaround for it? Or alternatively, you still have
    the problem and my patch would be useful to you. :-)

    By the way, I'm running Freebsd 5.4 Release and I'm using
    dvd+rw-tools 5.21.4.10.8 with an ATAPI DVD burner configured to be
    /dev/cd1.

    Thanks,
    Carl
